Toastmaster: Debbie
Full/Blue Moons were the topic of the day this week. Much
lunacy ensued, but definitely no cacology.
“Sheep in Wolf’s Clothing: Why I believe Introverts Make
Better Extroverts” was the title of Julian’s speech. From Project 4 of the Competent Communication manual Julian
told us all how introverts can plan and adapt to integrate into society and
rule the world with their calming nature.
Darrell’s speech, called “Dissing Dysfunction in the
Workplace”, touted the merits of Zachary Wong’s book Human Factors in Project Management. Darrell gave us a few ideas on
handling interpersonal problems at work. The speech was Project 5 from the
advanced manual Persuasive Speaking.
Both speakers were in time and Julian won the votes.
During Table Topics, Scott told us a few more facts about
the moon. He asked Andy if he believed the full moon created lunatic behavior,
to which Andy replied that it did bring the circus to town in North Carolina.
Tim told us he had wrongly judged a book by its cover in a coworker, but everything
worked out fine. Douglas told us about his favorite first day of school – where
his dad told the school Douglas would not be attending and took Douglas dove hunting
instead. Everyone loved Douglas’s speech so much that he won Table Topics this
week.
